Christian Ebbin and his Tulane University Sailing teammates have navigated a strong opening day to emerge as the overnight leaders in the highly competitive Open Atlantic Coast Championship Finals.
Competing in the two-person 420/FJ dinghies, Tulane has established an early advantage over the 18-school fleet, sitting atop the leaderboard with a total of 58 points.
Bermudian sailor Christian Ebbin is a key component of the Green Wave’s effort, helming the Tulane B Division boat.
Ebbin and his crew finished the day in eighth place within their division, accumulating 44 points. Their best finish came in the fourth race, where they crossed the line in fourth place, contributing crucial, low points to the overall team score.
Tulane’s strong overall position is significantly bolstered by the standout performance of their A Division boat, which is currently leading its division with an impressive low score of just 14 points.
The combined performance across both divisions puts Tulane in pole position heading into the final day of racing. The Green Wave will be relying on continued consistency from both Ebbin’s B-Division boat and the leading A-Division crew to secure the overall title.
